Explain why mess extinctions occur and why it make sense to measure geologic time between mass extinctions

1 answer:

3 0

Mass extinction occur from natural disasters, such as a n asteroid hitting earth or a volcano errupting and spread ash everywhere.

It makes sense to measure geologic time between mass extinctions because after each mass extinction, there is almost no life left and the few left have to repopulate, which may lead way to new mutations and new varieties of plants and animals.

To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 16.1 Standing waves. An air-filled pipe is found to have successive harmonics at 800 HzHz ,

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Length of the pipe = 53.125 cm

Explanation:

given data

harmonic frequency f1 = 800 Hz

harmonic frequency f2 = 1120 Hz

harmonic frequency f3 = 1440 Hz

solution

first we get here fundamental frequency that is express as

2F = f2 - f1 ...............1

put here value

2F = 1120 - 800

F = 160 Hz

and

Wavelength is express as

Wavelength = Speed ÷ Fundamental frequency ................2

here speed of waves in air = 340 m/s

so put here value

Wavelength =340 ÷ 160

Wavelength = 2.125 m

Length of the pipe will be

Length of the pipe = 0.25 × wavelength ......................3

put here value

Length of the pipe = 0.25 × 2.125

Length of the pipe = 0.53125 m

Length of the pipe = 53.125 cm

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation.

Explanation:

Given that two porters are available to carry a long timber wood.out of them one is weak. how do you make less load to the weak one?

We can make the weak one to carry less load through two different ways or means.

First, if we can locate the centre of gravity and centre of mass of the long timbre wood, the week one can carry the other end away from the center of gravity and centre of mass.

Second, the strong porter can carry the long timbre wood almost to the fulcrum and allow the weak one to support at the other end. By doing this, the weak one will only carry light portion of the load.
